Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The change from baseline in SCT at 10 minute after nasal irrigation of BHS and NSS

    SCT method : subjects seated with their head upright. A rhinoprobe was used to place a small piece of saccharine on the medial aspect of the inferior turbinate approximately 1 cm, posterior to the nasal vestibule. The SCT was recorded as the subject's first perception of a sweet taste.

    baseline, 10 minute after nasal irrigaiton
